Starting point is 00:00:59 From sleeve tariffs to mining tragedy, heheeees. It's time for Don't Get Me Started. Now sit back and prepare to be distracted and enjoy the show. Hi, welcome to Distractable. I'm not done eating my bagel, so I'm going to let these two gentlemen take over the intro for me. You've never seen Mark before this is him this is what mark looks like with half a shirt and a bagel in his mouth is there do you just like not have cream cheese or did you intend to eat a plain bagel it sounds like a judgment I
Starting point is 00:01:38 just I would that sounds really like unpleasant I'm sorry, do you not have good shirts? or... do they not sell whole shirts where you live anymore? or... you know, the tariffs I didn't want to pay extra to get the sleeves imported like uh, force awakens one half portion of shirt?
Starting point is 00:02:02 all you've scavenged for today well this is distractible and that was a great introduction to what this podcast was. It's an epogcast where you are trapped. Ha ha, you got tricked into this podcast. You could have picked any of the other ones on the top list, but here we are, and here you are forever and ever. You have to listen to all the episodes now. Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Starting point is 00:02:22 There are some good ones. There are some good ones. Some. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha bother laughing you're gonna hit another joke so soon if you laughed at every joke that showed up in this podcast why you'd rather last in the first 30 seconds well it's gonna be another one of those hilarious ones today because i'm hosting and that means i won the last one what disgusting story are we starting this episode with that's what we do now right we're not at all we're gonna start with whatever you guys have to say whether it's disgusting or not, is up to you. Do you know the original way they removed tapeworms? Chainsaw!
Starting point is 00:03:09 A real little one. You swallow the chainsaw and it goes through your digestive tract and it'll definitely cut up that tapeworm. I have a not interesting life update. I've complained about this and this is, I stole Mark's idea for this one, but I've been trying to get my medication, my medicine sorted out and I've talked about this and this is I stole marks idea for this one But my I've been trying to get my medication my medicine sorted out and I've talked about this multiple times it's been more than two months and Yesterday, I got the correct prescription for the first time
Starting point is 00:03:42 By which I mean it's still technically not it it's supposed to be a 90 day supply and for some reason they maxed out at giving me an 83 day supply, but at 80 days I can refill it so I basically have what I need as long as nothing bad happens or I need an extra couple days to get my medicine from the pharmacy or whatever. It's fine, it's fine. Why 83? Where in the hell? I could not fucking tell you,
Starting point is 00:04:08 but the fact that they gave me as much as they did, I was like, I'll take it. This is a win, count this as a win. God, fuck. Even the pharmacists, I've never had this before. Usually the pharmacists don't really care, right? Like you go and they're nice and they feel they don't care. I know the pharmacists now.
Starting point is 00:04:23 I know all of the pharmacists at my pharmacy. And when I come in every time until yesterday, every time I come in, they're all Oh, no, no, no, we got to talk. We got to talk. I called the I called the insurer and the doctor again. And we got to and then I came in yesterday and literally they were like, Woo, yeah, everybody. And everyone in the CBS was like, what the fuck is happening? I was like, just give me, stop. Give me my insulin. Bob gets his drugs, everyone! Bob gets his drugs! Anyway, that's not terribly exciting, but man, is it a relief to get that done one time successfully and pray to God it happens again when I need it. We'll see. I'm sure it'll
Starting point is 00:05:02 be fine. I'm really happy for you. I know that pain and I understand it very well. And I'm glad that they all applaud for you. They don't do that for me. Nah, I'm really nice to them. So they like me. Sam handsome. Wait, who's flirting with you these days? Oh, my wife once a week. We schedule it. Three o'clock! Flirt! You have to like force her to begrudgingly do it like...
Starting point is 00:05:28 Grrrr... Grrrr! Well don't you look human today. Aw babe. You don't look any more bald than I remember. You getting a haircut soon? Cause you're gross. Hahahaha! Hahahaha! Hahahaha!
Starting point is 00:05:44 Did you shower yet today? Because I can smell that you didn't. I don't know what's new. I like blueprints a lot. I'm still playing it. I had a run. So blueprints is a game. It's like a rogue lights puzzle game.
Starting point is 00:05:58 I just made a video on it. I know all about it. Yeah. Just just now. Just when we recorded this. I had a run that lasted like two hours one day last like two hours. I had all these things fall into place I was solving puzzles left and right and then I Unlocked this thing and this cutscene happened that I was like, oh my god
Starting point is 00:06:17 This is the best day I've ever had in this then the game crashed and it reset that day Nothing came up the same. I remembered some of the solutions, the things I figured out, so I had that knowledge, but it was a crushing, defeating feeling to have all that time, everything. I was like, I need this, I got this. I need, oh my God, I got that.
Starting point is 00:06:39 I got all these things. And then to lose it all hurt. That was a little while ago. I posted an episode that came out on that. But I've been playing since then, and I've had a couple more big victory days. I don't know, I don't do a lot of puzzle games, but I also don't know a game that I've played
Starting point is 00:06:53 where I've felt more rewarded for figuring something out. Like the way I feel, just that like that bit of dopamine rush or whatever it is, whenever something goes right, it's just like euphoric. It's so good. Whenever something clicks in place and you figure something out and then like you get to accomplish something in that game something about it is so addicting I'm not looking forward to the game ending because I
Starting point is 00:07:14 just want more I'm like on day 28 or something as of this recording but I just want you to show off your rat's nest of notes and stuff I don't want to spoil any things mark you can't try to read any of this, all right? Oh, okay. But I've got pages of notes. You can't read it. It's Wade's handwriting. It's basically hieroglyphics.
Starting point is 00:07:35 I've got conspiracy theory. I've got useless things written down. There are things I wish I'd, I'm like, I go back and I see like a video and I'm like, why didn't you write that down? It's painful. but this is more notes I've taken playing that game that I've taken since like high school or college Podcast notes not even close. Yeah, then any of the episodes are distractable. Nothing like that. Wow, that's crazy
Starting point is 00:07:58 What I write for this not even close to the work I put in for blueprints. I had a puzzle I was trying to solve for blueprints. This isn't a spoiler, because I got it wrong here. But I was writing down letters of things, and I was like, okay, this room, F. This room. And I was writing down different things, and I got FRIES! And I was like, oh my god, there's a food clue, FRIES! I kept writing down letters like FRIES! A-L-G-G-H-T-K-S.
Starting point is 00:08:24 FRIES ALGGHGKTS What does it mean? Is that a food I don't know? There's like a stupid recording there's like dumb me looking at the camera like What is fries algughikuts? Does anyone know? Let me know in the comments
Starting point is 00:08:40 what fries algughikuts is I love that for you Great game but man there are moments where I feel genius and there are moments where I feel like the dumbest person alive yeah my episode has that I stared at a puzzle for 30 minutes pulled it up into MS Paint tried to like decode it like really analyzing it yeah and then and I I spent like 45 minutes trying to solve it and I give up and I have to go look up something and I just I can't tell you what it was, but it was so astronomically stupid
Starting point is 00:09:09 I had five of the eight letters that it could have possibly be the end the last four is song and that's not a spoiler because that's the part of the clue that you get the first letters s and I'm like I can't figure out where these three fucking letters are. And if I even thought for like two seconds or whatever. On top of all the notes I just showed you, I have at least 34 photos on my phone of other things I've been like, I'm not writing this whole thing down, but something in there is important. Kerchunk. If only I was taking 60 frames photos per second of this
Starting point is 00:09:41 chachunk of this at what time. And then the comment will be like Wade you left six keys behind you Missed four gems you missed an upgrade you forgot to open a door you turned around here You didn't see the light flashing at you at this time like I missed the most obvious shit Well, I'm like, I'm pretty sure the dust on this table wasn't here the last time I drafted this room Yeah, I get that but then like the guy standing in the corner with an axe I don't notice cuz I'm an idiot. Oh god. Don't tell me there's a guy standing in the corner with an axe in that game I won't tell you that there is or is it. Shit. All right. Well, that's fine. Just be on the lookout
Starting point is 00:10:14 Bob any exciting? That was so exciting on Wade's Prof. I put a new roof on the playset I ordered a custom dimensions tarp because our playset is a non-standard size for some fucking reason. And then I screwed it in. So now there's a yellow roof on James's playset in the backyard. There is nothing worse than a non-standard size of anything. Because when something breaks,
Starting point is 00:10:37 when you have a door or a window or anything that's not the exact standard size, then it's like, well, we make windows, but you want us to cut one window that's an inch thicker? Oh, that's gonna cost you at least the extra $10,000. Well, the funny thing is it's just a tarp, so it didn't cost anything. It was just a pain in the ass.
Starting point is 00:10:58 Like it was still just $20, but I had, they had to, it was just like I had to figure out how to custom order a tarp from the internet but yeah apparently every other playset in existence they only sell one size of playset roof things because they're all the same but not ours we got a special one for whatever reason so cool I hope nothing on it ever breaks also I dropped a screw in the play area and I never found it. So James is getting a tennis shot at some point in the future here Literally I was like I was putting the last screw in on the thing and I was like
Starting point is 00:11:37 It like exploded out of existence. I'd mandy look for it. God knows probably flip my ass Well, you need to have someone look at your ass. I wouldn't even notice. That's how, that's kind of ass I have. I'm glad it was just a custom sized tarp you needed, Bob. Couldn't you have just gotten, was it bigger, I'm guessing, than what the normal tarp would be? It was smaller.
Starting point is 00:11:57 So couldn't you have just gotten an oversized tarp? Or do you just need to fix it like gloves over it or something? Well, you have to screw it in, right? And if you screwed into the, if you don't have grommets and you screw into the tarp, it's just going to rip. And I could have grommeted my own tarp, but I've never done that.
Starting point is 00:12:12 So I was like, well, I found a thing where I can get exactly the dimensions I want. So I can order literally the exact same size and it fits and I can screw it into the same holes. But like, it was just a thing where it's like, they sell every color and type of roof for playsets you could possibly imagine all in the one size they're supposed to be and that's it and i was like i even found the brand of the playset and like they don't even sell it they sell this playset but not the thing you need to put on top of it that's because they can't find the right size
Starting point is 00:12:42 i yeah they were like well fuck, nobody makes these in this size. Uh, don't have a roof I guess. That way the birds poop into it. Cats poop under it, birds poop onto it. Oh, my dad always said. Dumbadeedadoopadoopadeo. He's just singing to get the bonus point, Will. Bob, get all your bonus point things in.
Starting point is 00:12:59 I'm gonna eat. I wouldn't eat that if I were you, laddie. It's a container of barbecue sauce, I'm not gonna eat that. I don't think that if I were you, laddie! It's a container of barbecue sauce, I'm not gonna eat that. I don't think any of you could eat more than the big light at the beginning of this, so I think I kinda win that one. Oh, that's true. Fuck.
Starting point is 00:13:14 Oh, we weren't recording. I ate half a sandwich. It was a big sandwich. I ate a whole meal. It was a big double decker club sandwich, but it was before I clicked record. Who do you think looks more like their background, me or Bob?

Starting point is 00:14:22 We have many things to discuss today, or I guess kind of discussed, but I'm going to start off with something that really, you know, really grinds my gears. I knew you were going to say that. All right. I'm giving you a bonus point in my head, even though I'm not hosting. I'm having the best time right now. I'm having a ball. Don't stop now.
Starting point is 00:14:43 So I'm actually not much on the internet these days, besides just browsing Reddit sometimes. So I don't know where this debate originated, but have you heard discussion about 100 guys versus one gorilla? Yeah, sure. Right? Okay. Where do you stand on this. So the premise is who would win in a fight? 100 normal sized like men or one gorilla? All just unarmed combat. I feel like it would be just about the worst win you could imagine but a hundred guys has to take it just by sheer number. But that's like like like one guy would barely survive and that would be the end of it, but it would be awful. That's, that's my, that's my gut feeling.
Starting point is 00:15:30 I don't actually, I don't have any reason I know that, but that's just how I, that's what I think. It's just, I, I, I think about this and, and I can't understand anybody that's on the side of the gorilla because yeah, it's a 600 pound gorilla was what I saw quoted as but it's a hundred guys a hundred guys if they all weigh 150 pounds which might be close to average I don't know that's 15,000 pounds of guy a hundred a hundred women could also take down a gorilla easy just sacrifice half of them to be at the bottom of the pile you crush them all yeah it would be really bad for the
Starting point is 00:16:04 women or that they would be bad for the humans no matter who they were. But they would there's just too many. I feel like changing the number is where it gets interesting because if you say ten guys versus one gorilla, gorilla, obviously. Let's not get ahead of ourselves because I want to walk this down. This isn't the whole episode, but this is I actually really just wanted to kind of have this conversation. No, I'm into it, I'm into it. All right, we'll call this,
Starting point is 00:16:27 Nah, I'd Win Part Four. Okay, 100 guys win easy. 90. I feel like you're in the same ballpark. It's too many guys. It's too many. All right, let's just jump all the way to 50. 50 guys, one gorilla.
Starting point is 00:16:41 I still think the guys win. This is territory where I would say in my gut I would like nine out of ten times the guys have it but it's theoretically possible that a really lucky or really strong gorilla maybe takes 50 guys. Oh 50? Like maybe. Like there's a slight there's a slight chance but I would pick the guys if we were betting I would pick the guys if we Change the parameters. I'm assuming an average dude and average gorilla just to keep it consistent I'm always picturing average dudes average gorilla
Starting point is 00:17:14 I still feel like 50s just like there's too many people to grab and hold like you send five guys per limb And then you still have 40 to go for the body, but they can't get like per limb and then you still have 40 to go for the body. But they can't get like, that's the thing, right? You're reaching territory where you can't all get your hands on the gorilla at the same time. And it's not enough people where you can just literally have like a pile of humanity on top. It's probably close to that still.
Starting point is 00:17:40 But it's enough where like if the gorilla gets some space and starts picking people off, if the guys lose too many too quickly, there's a turning point. I don't think it's likely the gorilla would win, but I feel like this is in the territory where the gorilla starts to have more of a chance if they're like lucky or they're really smart or something. The way I look at it is, if I'm... let's say I'm the gorilla and I'm the biggest baddest gorilla there is Record-breaking big gorilla if I see 50 guys emerge from the forest line coming at me I'm scared. I don't care how bad as if a gorilla I am. I'm scared. I'm like, holy shit What the fuck 50 I'd be like I think a lot of people are like, oh the people would be scared. That gorilla would be fucking petrified.
Starting point is 00:18:29 Holy shit, where did all these people come from? So I think, okay, I get it, like there's like a 1% chance the gorilla would. Yeah, that's where I'm going from. But it's really low. I would still definitely bet on the people. Yeah, I would bet on the people. All right, 25. That's still five per limb and five to just go after the torso. You got to think five dudes could hold back a gorilla arm, right? It would probably take more than two to hold back one limb of this 600 pounds really. It would take more than two for sure.
Starting point is 00:18:58 As a person who regularly has to wrangle a toddler, I can tell you it's in theory. It sounds like, yeah, you just hold the arm back. But the thing about body physics, body mechanics is, it's not like there's a fixed system and the arm hinges off the side. If you hold the arm back, all of that torque is still applied to the body or is used to leverage the other arm. Like there's a lot. I would still, if I was betting money on it, I would still bet on 25 people. But this is way more in the territory of like, if the gorilla gets some lucky shots
Starting point is 00:19:31 and takes out five, 10 people right off the bat, and you're knocked down to like 15 or less, immediately the people are like, oh, we're fucked. Like this is, there's not enough. I think a gorilla could win against 25, but if I'm betting, it's 25 dudes. I would still bet on people, but it would be a way closer fight in my head.
Starting point is 00:19:50 Yeah, it'd be like one to five odds, probably proportional to the amount of people there. So probably the tipping point is if you get below 20 people, it really starts to get dicey. Like you gotta really have some coordination there to make sure that it's not able to pick you guys off or pick one person up and hit five other with one person, you know, and that's when things-
Starting point is 00:20:13 Well, that's kind of what I'm imagining, right? If the gorilla is as strong as I imagine, they could literally pick a person up by the ankle and just like, yeah, and then it's like, they got, then they have a weapon, which is, you know, awful if you're the people. The tricky thing is, though, with a gorilla, it's still, assuming he's a male gorilla, still has testicles to hit and still has eyes to gouge out. Now, whether or not you're going for those, that's where I'm kind of like, okay, humans are smart and they can communicate.
Starting point is 00:20:41 So even if you don't have a plan going ahead in time, you could still shout, go for the eyes. And everyone's like gun, like doing this for the eyes. Like it would, it would definitely do some things 20 and below. You'd have to have that coordination. You have to have another P enough people that are willing to dive for it, which as you get lower in number, you get less percentage of random people that would be willing to like, all right, let's fucking go. You might have half of them that are like, I don't want to jump in there. You might have like two or three. That's an important sort of assumption on this is I'm imagining all of this where the people, the option for the people is you, however many people, we're gonna dump you in this arena and you're gonna fight this gorilla or we're just gonna shoot you.
Starting point is 00:21:24 Because if it's, if it's people where there's any alternative, even if it's a hundred people, most of those people are going to see the gorilla and be like, fuck that and try and get away. You're not going to have every single person being like, I don't care if I die, let's claw his eyes out. What like it's, I'm assuming there's a pretty high level of dedication where it's like either you fight the fucking gorilla With everything you got or you die anyway, so you're gonna like it's gonna be crazy Unless they're from the where my grandparents cabin was in Kentucky where I'm pretty sure everyone there thinks they can solo a bear
Starting point is 00:21:58 Listen moonsign does some crazy shit Yeah, there's this like, I forget where this is, but you know, like Joe Rogan always goes on about like a gorilla and no guy could take him down. But I don't know if this is him saying or someone else on the show or someone else just talking about unrelated. But I always describe to this is, do you think that one guy could take a gorilla? Or one guy could ever take a bear? Ever. Any guy, strongest guy on earth, taking a full on grizzly bear or a- With no, like no guns, no weapons. It's just like a fist fight. Yeah. I feel like that's a one, that's a one in a million.
Starting point is 00:22:35 Even if it was the most muscular, highly trained weapon of a human, I could imagine a whole grown grizzly bear or a grown male gorilla doesn't really give a shit I don't think about that person and could still basically tear them in half. A grizzly bear for sure there's no way just like it wouldn't happen but maybe I'm underestimating peoples but that just seems ridiculous to me. If you got behind it where we like choke it or something maybe I don't know how much they can reach with their claws and people's but that just seems ridiculous to me. If you got behind it where we were like choke it or something maybe I don't know how much they can reach with their claws and tear that direction like maybe even if they just fell over
Starting point is 00:23:10 backwards onto you that would be pretty rough. Find the nearest tree and just scratch scratch and paste on that tree Yeah, but I will say I can't remember who said it but it was like you do need those people that are like I can take a bear because otherwise And again, this isn't me saying this otherwise back in like caveman days You don't take down the wooly mammoth. You don't do it unless you have that guy That's nuts and being like nah, fuck it. Let's do this gang. I'm Exactly. You need your Leroy sometimes even though Leroy can get himself and others killed, for sure, hey. LEROOOOOOY JAKES!
Starting point is 00:23:50 One out of every ten Leroy's brought down a mammoth. That's why we're here today. It's the combo, right? It's like, I feel like the space race brings to mind for this for me. The guys who were going up in the capsules, the test pilots and the early astronauts were clearly like, strap me on the front of this thing that's probably just gonna fucking explode and blow my ass into space and see what happens. And all the scientists are like, wow, wait, hey, maybe we can make this safer. Like, let's up your odds a little if, hang on. Like it's the combination of the crazy brave insane person who's like I don't care I'll do it and everyone else being like let's
Starting point is 00:24:30 help him this reminds me it's totally different subject but you saying that have you heard of the XF 84h thunder screech yes yes yeah well you I don't want to spoil it you can you can I can. No, no, I just pulled it up. You can talk about it. That's the plane where the, it's a propeller plane. It's a prop plane, right? But the, the engine rotates the propeller so fast that the tips of the blades create constant, they're constantly breaking the sound barrier. And so they create a constant persistent sonic boom. So as the thing
Starting point is 00:25:06 flies it's one of the loudest things humans have ever created if you exclude like the largest nuclear detonations. But like it's so loud that people 20 miles away when it was doing test flights or further heard it like a fighter jet was flying right over their house and we're like terrified of it. It's a but and flying it inside the pilot inside of it was so loud that it like physically disabled the pilots they would get sick or disoriented it basically was like giving them concussions just for trying to fly this plane normally at normal speed for the way that functioned. The craziest fucking plane ever.
Starting point is 00:25:45 They got a test pilot to do it because anyone that actually tried to pilot, they would go up and immediately come back down and be like, fuck this. But finally they got someone to take a like 30 minute flight and I think he came down with a concussion. Like he literally had a concussion by the time he landed. It was that bad.
Starting point is 00:26:02 That plane is such a, just the best invention. It's like no one can fly it. Everyone for 150 miles hears when it's in the air. It's the most terrifying, useless, loud thing. And it was not, it's not like it was a propeller plane that could go like so fast that it was, it was just kind of a fast plane that had no other it was just in 200 years we'll find out that that invention led to some other use that's completely crazy
Starting point is 00:26:32 and different now when you're trying to give birth sometimes what you need you know what's gonna get that baby out of there just sonic booms going right into the womb just put the propeller in reverse it sucks nothing scares a baby out of the uterus like constant sonic booms you know where they made that plane wasn't it like New Mexico or something right Patterson hey that's right by us well that explains why I had all those headaches a couple weeks ago well if you were alive in alive in 1955, that would explain many things that we know about you, but also, yeah. Oh, that's when they did it? They had the propellers that fast in 1955? I guess we had atomic technologies. It's the tip of the propeller, right?
Starting point is 00:27:17 So it's not like the entire face of the propeller is traveling faster than the speed of sound, but the tip, which is the part with the highest velocity because it's furthest from the road, it's just the design of the thing. They were trying to design a plane to go faster, but it turns out there's kind of a limit on that because if the tips of your propellers break the sound barrier, then it is like flying a giant fucking explosion
Starting point is 00:27:37 for every moment it's on and flying. Yeah, absolutely. I'm sure it's awful, but I really wish that like you could go see like an air show they would have one of those fly over but like you could you couldn't you wouldn't be allowed to do that I would just be so fascinated to hear something that loud I can't imagine then you hear it you're like you hear it and it's like a hundred miles away and you're like, alright, alright, that's pretty le- alright, okay
Starting point is 00:28:08 That's enough! That's enough planes! Dude, I can't handle whenever I knock over- like we've used like a baby gate to keep the dogs out of certain spots. When that falls over and hits like wood or something, that noise is too loud for me. I don't want to hear a fucking sonic boom over my head. Oh, yeah, no, I would I would not actually like it, but it's a very fascinating thing that that plane existed. Anyway, alright, so that was a side tangent. Oh yeah, the gorillas.
Starting point is 00:28:32 The real thing we're going to be talking about today is actually, it's one of the few suggestions that we're taking from the subreddit. I don't know if you guys saw the post, but someone was very excited to share this idea. I don't fucking go out there anymore. Alright, so anyway, there's a post. Once you read this, you'll understand All Caps Make It Happen subreddit. And usually if I see something like that,
Starting point is 00:28:53 I'm like, I'm not gonna take this idea out of spite, because this is silly. But agreeable middle 769, they said they didn't make it, they found it on Pinterest. Before we get into it, did we figure out the number where it's 50-50 gorilla people? What is our 50-50 number? I want to know. 50-50? Average people, I would put it around 15 to 20 would be a 50-50 shot either way.
Starting point is 00:29:16 I want to say 15 would be very pretty even, pretty 50-50. I was thinking 12. 12 for me. 12? That's not crazy that sounds reasonable to me. Yeah 12 I could see 12 because then a gorilla would still be like shit 12. If it's a number that I imagine the gorilla would be like oh I don't like these odds then that's about 50-50. 12 I guess would make sense it's enough for everyone to get in there at once it's enough for everyone to grab
Starting point is 00:29:42 some part of this gorilla. It's enough you could lose some people and it's not immediately bad when you lose one. Ten is like pushing it. For some reason, yeah. For some reason I'm like, ten? I think a gorilla could take ten. But I don't know why I'm like, oh, but twelve. That's too more than ten. It makes sense. There's something about those kinds of thresholds. Like ten isn't a natural threshold. But okay, so you have, I think I remember seeing a documentary on the history and all or discovery something about this where if you got a tiger in the woods, and they see two others, it's nowhere near as bad suddenly if it goes from two to three, like one v two is like you could be like, Okay, if I really play this right, one v three, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:30:20 there's no fucking way. So it was something about a tiger seeing that and and animals and we humans think in terms of Those kind of logarithmic scales not necessarily binary like doubling one to two isn't as bad as one to three is suddenly very bad But three to four is very little difference, you know You have to hit a threshold higher to something. I think twelve is that threshold higher than ten You really starts to make a difference. I don't know why but that it does it feels that way to me Anyway, the reason I talk about this because the in this post that they made which is a post they found on Pinterest Which is a post that originally was made on tumblr which has 784 thousand notes. There's a game that this person flashing lights likes to call don't get me started
Starting point is 00:31:05 person flashing lights likes to call don't get me started which is where on a random topic that I'm gonna give one of you guys you have to go on an angry rant about how it's the you're just fucking don't get me started about X when for me it was don't get me started about a hundred people versus one gorilla there's no fucking way that gorilla's gonna lose this fight. 100 people, you shitting me. 100, like, you know, so. 100 people with no legs could take down a gorilla, you know, just like, go off on that. Oh, that's interesting. 100 people, no limbs? No, not no limbs.
Starting point is 00:31:39 Shats of teeth. Just mouths and... Just flop and, ha ha come at me girl Maybe maybe by pure exhaustion the gorilla would get tired by the 80th person You can probably get away with having a nap in the middle of killing everybody. Yeah, you just As long as he's still laid down far enough away. I have some time. Yeah, man But if you see a hundred limbless people rolling down at you, it's yeah, I wouldn't take that fight. That's not good All right, so I got a random topic
Starting point is 00:32:10 Just saw the first one. Oh good. I think wade goes first who gets this one. All right heads heads heads wade tails bob I forget if that's an oral. Sure. Sure. Sure Heads that's wade sure. Heads? Heads Wade! Heads Wade! Oh good yeah I can't wait. First topic that popped up in literally the random topic generator is motherhood. I mean good. Hey you don't have to you don't have to you get abstained. Yes I do. So I go off on a tangent don't get me started on motherhood. You have to start whatever you're saying with, don't get me started about... Don't even get me started about motherhood. Motherhood? So much more complex and difficult than we give credence to. Everyone's like, oh man, being a dad, you have to deal with your wife being pregnant.
Starting point is 00:33:01 She's got cravings, she's got mood swings, the baby's here, wow wow I don't get as much attention as I used to, my workflow is disrupted, I don't get as much sleep, mama's got chemical stuff going on, she's got chemical changes for the moment of conception all the way down through to birth, after birth the pressure, the postpartum depression, dealing with the whiny, bitter, super upset fucking husband husband two babies in the house now instead of one And that's not even talking about if anything is difficult during the pregnancy during the birth during the child care Plus adjusting to that schedule adjusting the changes of your body trying to go back to normal trying to get weight off Whatever have you does do not even get me started
Starting point is 00:33:43 All right. All right. I feel like you took You try, you know, you do I'll give you a point for it, but you didn't go That we all knew you should have gone I'm not alienating half the fan base. Look man. We're all playing. It's a game My heart will go out to Elon and I'll talk about gay wind I'm not going after moms. All right, fair enough fair enough, but I'll give you a point for that But I guess I'll give my balls are only so big dude. All right, Bob Lighters that's your random topic. Oh, don't get me started about lighters
Starting point is 00:34:21 fire Anytime you want it with the flick of a finger? That's what humanity needed. Do you know why cavemen had to rub sticks together? It was a safety precaution. You know how dangerous it is to have a little bomb in your pocket? You're hanging out at the gas station fueling your car? Bomb in your pocket. You're at the school for career day talking to your kids class, bomb in your pocket. You're at the hockey game getting drunk, cheering on your favorite Canadians, bomb in your pocket. Don't even get me started about lighters.
Starting point is 00:34:54 Like I need more shit to be worried about on a daily basis. Plus, you know what having a lighter leads to? Smoking cigarettes. That's right, lighters cause cancer. Lighters are worse than cancer because lighters could give cancer to people who didn't even have to begin with. Some people are born that way. And some people figure out how to use a lighter and grow up to get cancer. Thanks, big fire! Some people are born this way. Some people are born this way.
Starting point is 00:35:27 That was good. Alright, alright, okay. Man, controversial topic. Motherhood, the lighters. These are equally tough things to be angry about. Give me politics! Give me abortion. Give me come on death penalty something Look wait, this one will be much more fair but not to you. I think personally this it's random. It's so I believe it Yeah, we have two wheels random topic and controversial topic wheel. No, no, it's not controversial But it's not fair to you boats Don't even get me started on boats We are not meant to be out on the fucking water. We're meant to be on land. We have legs
Starting point is 00:36:10 We have arms. We started crawling around on all fours. You know what? You don't start off doing swimming You're not born into a vat of tub of water milk or whatever. Have you you're born on to land There are water births sure, but those aren't fucking natural the cave cavemen weren't like, oh, baby come born, need tub of water, put on boat. No, we don't belong on boats. We don't belong in space. We belong on a fucking dirt where we can walk and grow plants and eat ants and all that kind of shit. What are you gonna eat on a fucking boat?
Starting point is 00:36:39 You gonna catch a bird with your bare hand? No, you need even more tools. And then you need a bigger fucking boat to hold all those tools so you can get your fish, you can get your birds. Whereas I can just walk down the fucking road and grab a goddamn squirrel off the road! Easy peasy! But you can't do that in the fucking water! You gonna dive in and out swim a fish? No! You can out fly a bird? No! This is waste more resources for a bigger boat so we can fucking survive out there whenever we don't even need to do that shit Oh, but it's so peaceful having a nice sea breeze floating around bobbin So you get motion sick and then you get to land and you walk around like an asshole for two days cuz oh
Starting point is 00:37:13 I've been bobbing around like this for fucking ever and you look stupid. You don't need a boat Fucking Jack Sparrow over here walking around You ever see sailors get off their goddamn boats? They're like, they're not drunk, they just got off the boat, that's why they're walking like that. I love in your world that boats are for fishing and also getting birds. You get a bigger boat, you need tools on your boat,
Starting point is 00:37:41 you go catch your fish, you go get your birds. Yeah, I thought that was really good too I could see the thought process cuz you're like you're on the boat you're on the water. What do you need birds? All right fish exist fishing All right, Bob yours is holidays Don't even get me started on holidays don't even get me started on holidays. Emphasis on the days part.
Starting point is 00:38:07 How many days of my life am I gonna have to give up to some new fucking holiday? You know which ones I need? The classics, birthday, New Year's, and Memorial Day. All the rest of the holidays are just made up bullshit to sell cards and force us into even more consumerism. Unless it's a day off work, I don't need this in my life. And if it's a day off work, I'm not celebrating somebody else's holiday, I'm celebrating my holiday. It's called I Don't Have to Work this Monday, so it's kind of like Sunday Part
Starting point is 00:38:44 2. But there's no football, Sunday part two, but there's no football Which is okay because it's still Monday night football because it's Monday and football is good But holidays are such a fucking waste of time Unless it's New Year's Eve my birthday or Memorial Day, which we all know and love. It's just a scam It's just the government trying to control you. It's just the government trying to control you. It's just the government trying to tell you what's good and what's bad. Today, today, bunnies are good. And eggs. And those go together. And that's the government. They're trying to get in your head. Tomorrow, who knows, it's going to be National High Five of Squirrel
Starting point is 00:39:19 Day. And then after that, it's National Kiss of Fish Day. How are you going to get to a fish? A fucking boat? Don't get me started on boats! What, you gonna outswim a fish? No! No, you're not! I think we covered that. Ah, I lost it. Anyway, fuck holidays. That's okay. You admitted and you lost it.
Starting point is 00:39:40 You squozed the callback in there and I think that's good. And officially that puts you in the running for most callbacks. All right, Wade Yeah pets Honestly, don't get me started on pets pets are a bigger responsibility than anyone would have you know pets cute. They're cuddly They're fun. Sure, but nobody wants to talk about what pets actually need. Money for vet bills, leaky anal glands! You gotta take them to the vet once every month or two and have someone stick their fingers up their ass to release their anal glands.
Starting point is 00:40:10 Because apparently that's a fucking thing they don't teach you whenever, Oh, I wanna get a little puppy! No, you fucking don't! You're gonna gel up your fingers and gel up Fido's ass? Well, someone has to because the anal glands get clogged. It's disgusting. Oh, and then they get older. We outlive our pets. That's really sad. It sucks losing pets.
Starting point is 00:40:26 Been there, done that. They don't train you for that shit either. But when they get old, it's not all cute, cuddly, fun games. No, I'm learning that cats stop using the litter box and they shit on the floor and they drag their ass. They go outside, they eat grass, they come inside. And guess what?
Starting point is 00:40:41 Oh, grass, I thought it feels so good. Bleah! Oh, I vomited. That makes me need to shit too for some reason. Let me just leave all of that right by the couch where you sit so your feet can either be in the nice nasty icky or on the lovely cleaning solution you put down.
Starting point is 00:40:56 Just got a new rug? Oh boy, no more yet, I better go mark that! Hike, piss, bleah, all over the goddamn place. Oh, I don't wanna eat the food you got today, father. Oh, this canned food? It isn't what I happen to want. I don't want those treats today. I want what you want. Oh, that steak that you've been cooking looks great. You had to look away to crack open a drink?
Starting point is 00:41:19 Oh, fucking mind! Get your own food now, dad! Oh, okay, guess I'll just fucking starve What could you give me some cuddles some cute moments, but all of the shit? Don't get me started. Yeah, you really went there man. I hope your pets don't listen to this podcast. Yeah, I'm gonna make What you play for them when you leave the house But over their cage and play this episode on full volume. Oh yeah, take out the blankets just cold hard to create with a TV monitor and this. That's pretty good. That's pretty good, man.
Starting point is 00:41:52 Uh, alright, Bob, you're up next. Uh, what are your thoughts on donkeys? Uh-huh. That's not pet donkeys, just donkeys. All donkeys. pet donkeys just donkey all donkeys all donkeys don't Even get me started on donkeys fucking Eddie Murphy can kiss my ass Donkeys like to pretend like it's all fun and games. I like to breathe they hang out with the horses in the field They eat some grass. They like to pretend like they're chill. They're just a bunch of assholes
Starting point is 00:42:23 They eat some grass, they like to pretend like they're chill. They're just a bunch of assholes. All they want to do is whatever you don't want them to do. Have sex with the dragon? Don't think I will today. Oops! Donkey-Dragon hybrid babies. Pull the wagon to market? Nah, why don't you use the horse for that? Actually, I killed the horse.
Starting point is 00:42:43 Yeah, donkeys can do that too. Donkeys are worse than pets because they will shit in your house and they will throw up grass for no reason. But they do all kinds of other shit too. Did you know that donkeys wear pants? Yeah, they wear lots of pants and then they shit in those pants and then you have to wash those pants or it's animal cruelty. Yeah, I thought so. These are facts about donkeys. Don't even keep me going. Did you know that donkeys like to pretend
Starting point is 00:43:15 to be friends with ducks and let you take cute family pictures like they're all a bunch of orphans who are all gonna live together and be, and then they just stamp them to death Just for fun just to see your face when you come back out to the field and you're like Oh, we're gonna visit the lovely family of donkeys and ducks that's living in my- no. They're murderers Donkeys are murderers, cold-blooded murderers. They are actually sociopaths. They do not give a shit. It's all an act It's all a
Starting point is 00:43:45 hee haw, hee haw, it's a ruse. They think I don't know what they're up to, but I figured their shit out. I can see through the schtick and the next time I'm in the same room as a donkey, I'm not gonna fall for it. God damn, I didn't think you were gonna go all that way. I don't actually know very much about donkeys. Was that accurate? I believe it now, you didn't think you were gonna go all that way. I don't actually know very much about donkeys. Was that accurate? I believe it now, you know? Do you make yourself lightheaded doing these spiels?
Starting point is 00:44:10 Cause I made myself lightheaded on the last one. I make my heart race. I think I'm like forcing myself to have a little bit of adrenaline or something. Cause I'm trying to get like amped up. I feel like our careers are bad for our health. I hope refrigerators comes up. Just imagine.
Starting point is 00:44:25 All right. Okay. I, I, I, that was the one worded topics. I wanted to spill it over into some things that are two sentence don't make me's don't even get me started about the scary tape. I think, I think that there's room to expand just a little bit into something that might actually kind of be controversial I was like here's random and then I had this plan for like here's maybe something that was worth debate feed me daddy
Starting point is 00:44:56 That is really crank his volume so people can hear All right, so Wade's dead now. Does that mean I win? Unless we want to give like posthum- we should define that next time what happens when a host or participant dies in the episode. We don't have a contingency for that. We should have a last will and testament. Can you imagine if we actually just kept rolling? What if it's just time we're like, the show must go on! If we agree that we have to,
Starting point is 00:45:28 if we agree that we need to keep this in the episode, one of us dying. So what if we call 911 or tell their significant... Nah, well let's finish the episode first. Well, man, suck if they lose. Like you spin the wheel and it just really falls out of their favor. Hey, they got the point for didn't participate the most
Starting point is 00:45:50 okay, Wade, here's a topic I'm not sure which side to take you on but let's say kids having cell phones don't get me started on kids with cell phones when we were growing up, we were lucky to have a walkie talkie. My grandparents gave me a walkie talkie and if I got out of range of the walkie talkie, grounded in trouble, not going out again.
Starting point is 00:46:12 Kids with cell phones, they don't worry about dial up internet like we did. They can just access whatever, whenever. They're in class, cell phone goes off. Hold on teacher, gotta take this call. That's why they're dumb as shit and not learning anything because they're fucking sitting there googling dumb shit Responding to their friends texting their friends looking at porn making bombs whatever teenagers do these days That's not fucking sitting there and learning we talk about the education system failing all must be the teachers all must be this
Starting point is 00:46:38 No It's the goddamn stupid ass kids and their worst fucking parents giving them all this technology way too early and they don't know how To handle it because they're giving it an early age they think oh i can just go off and multitask whenever no your brain's not that good our brains aren't that good humans brains aren't that good we're all stupider for having phones in front of us at all times kids with cell phones worst idea nothing good is coming of that they may once in a blue moon have an important text or call that comes that does have to go through the principal's office We had a protocol for that if something important happened Principal comes in and her con goes off come in we need to tell you something now
Starting point is 00:47:11 It's hey grandma died by the way just thought you should know love you. Don't forget to do your homework Bye, and it's like fucking why is that on your phone? Don't even get me started on this I looked at my cell phone every time you said the word phone during that see I take that phone and beat little Timmy's fucking head in with It be like they're paid that you now good pay attention now. No. He probably is not this good therapy. We should do this more Other way does a lot of pinned up issues and yeah, I'm sorry to get the real ones there all right Okay, oh good. Okay. That's good reaction Bob funerals
Starting point is 00:47:48 Let me just stretch the anger out a little bit Don't even get me started on funerals. Did I not give you enough while you were alive? Did you not take enough of my precious time while you could reciprocate anything? of my precious time, while you could reciprocate anything. Let's not even get into whether you did or did not ever say thank you for the countless hours of my life I gave to you. Grandma, coming to visit, spending the holidays with you, eating the food you made for me to make me eat. It's awful. Don't get me started on funerals.
Starting point is 00:48:24 Like, those people need any more attention. Only the most narcissistic, selfish, unbelievably self-centered people would possibly think that what they need after they have left their family, mourning, and just torn apart is a party for them. That's who's important at that moment in time. That's what everyone wants. And open casket funerals? Please. Oh yeah, I'm gonna die and then I want you to dress me up real nice and I want you to
Starting point is 00:49:03 do my makeup and I want you to pretend stuff my cheeks with cotton balls pretend like they're not all sunken in and then come look At me and talk to me like I'm there. Yeah, that's fair. That's fair to everyone I need that in the afterlife. I'll really enjoy and I'll drink it up like a delicious salve on my soul That's fair. That's good! Miss you, Grandma. Oh man. Having been to like a hundred funerals, you know what, Bob? That was spot on. That was spot on. I think he's got it.
Starting point is 00:49:34 Selfish bastards. Unbelievable behavior going on over here. I'm gonna get some more. Don't even get me started on what else you got in there. Don't even get me started on getting started. No, no. We're not gonna get meta here Are you just like cycling through right now to pick ones that you want us to do? Yeah. Yeah Well, I'm hitting random, you know, well some of them. I don't know. Do you want to wait?
Starting point is 00:49:54 Do you want coffee cuz that's what's up? I will do you you give me the topic man. I'll make it work All right. Well coffee is what's what's on the motherhood just came up again So unless you want to man this thing is really trying to get in there. Ah, mother coffee. Don't get me started on coffee. I'm not a coffee drinker. People will say they wake up, they're like, oh, the smell of a fresh cup of coffee.
Starting point is 00:50:16 People have their nasty yellowed coffee teeth. They have their nasty coffee breath. One cup of coffee when I wake up gives me some energy to start my day. A month later, two cups of up gives me some energy to start my day. A month later two cups of coffee gives me the energy to start my day. A couple months later. Oh man I've not had coffee in like two hours I'm starting to really wear down. I've only had two pots of fucking coffee today. Oh I only need 18 forests of coffee to get through my week. You weak fucking little bitches I don't have any coffee. I don't have any goddamn energy drinks. I'm a fucking person who just learns to deal with it. Jesus fuck
Starting point is 00:50:50 Oh, I need my coffee. No, you don't you made yourself need your coffee You got yourself on this goddamn addiction to coffee What goes it done other than make you spend more money to get more coffee that doesn't quite get you that same high the first Cup ever did it's like your goddamn serial killer. You got your first kill. Oh man, I gotta do another one. See if it gets me that same high. No, the coffee will never recapture that first moment of coffee glass you had. It will never be as good. And you smell bad. It smells bad. It tastes bad. It takes up space. I could have other good things in the store. Oh, you know, you work in a place that serves coffee. You know what you do every 10 minutes. You'll change the fucking coffee.
Starting point is 00:51:26 You throw away the nasty wrapper of coffee grounds. You start another brew of coffee. People come in. I'll have my 50 cent cup of coffee. Actually it's a dollar today, sir. The price went up. Yeah, that's what fucking happens in the world. Prices go up. And I'm sorry you're grumpy. You didn't have your cigarette in your coffee. Oh my God. It's not my problem. Get over it. Want to get me started on coffee Damn man, all right well done all right
Starting point is 00:51:56 Bob this would be the last one would be as by the turn and the orders that we have been in this would be it Well your thoughts on mining? Yep. Analyzing. It's irrelevant to our everyday life. It's a random topic. Don't even get me started on mining. You know who mines?
Starting point is 00:52:18 Miners. You know what miners talk like? Oh, cinnamon and gravy. Oh, lemon and- Gus Chickens? Could you live with that? I grew up in a town of minors. Every fucking adult talked like that. Could you imagine that life? You know how hard it was for me to learn how to talk normally, like a human person like this? Don't even get me started. And the clothes.
Starting point is 00:52:45 It's the 21st century, and miners still dress like it's 1863, and no one has invented clothing in the last... Look, it's not even about that. I just wish my dad had been around. Yes, he needed to provide for his family. Yes, mining is a job No earning money at the company store is not the same as living the American dream
Starting point is 00:53:13 It was a hellhole and we were all trapped together The mine was was supposed to be your way out But it turns out work will not set you free work will just keep you in the mine while your sons at at basketball practice, wondering if his dad's gonna see him make a free throw this weekend. Spoilers, he's not! The mine took my father, the mine took all six of my brothers, then the mine took my life away from me, even though it didn't kill me because I escaped by sheer luck and happenstance. A grifter picked me up on the side of the state road as I was wandering away from my father's funeral. Don't even get me started on funerals! And he happened to drop me off in the beautiful land of opportunity that is Cincinnati, Ohio. I made me who I is, and now I almost slipped back into minor speak don't you
Starting point is 00:54:06 let me do it if I talk like that ever again I want you to slap me in the face and drive a pickaxe through my heart because I don't want any part of me to remember what mining is or what mining does to people or ever of how many brothers I said I have six six I think it was. Why are we digging holes in the ground in 2017? What's the point? I'd be more worried about ladders if I were you. Thank you. I want to hear more about that story that's just, I'm captivated by that life.
Starting point is 00:54:38 My dad didn't even dig in the mines. He was the canary! When does fast grocery delivery through Instacart matter most?

Starting point is 00:55:18 Never would have caught him if you were on a boat. Don't even get me started on boats. All right, so that was good guys man you guys really went to sorry about your blood pressure uh and uh sorry we had to relive all this it certainly went up uh so we're gonna call it there thank you once again to uh flashing lights my forehead's supposed to throb like that you get that like the little bit yeah that's probably fine so I rated this in a in a way that I had predetermined I gave three levels to each of these rants and I if you got to the extreme of emotion rage or whatever it would be like progress through the
Starting point is 00:55:56 levels and so like I ranked it sometimes like that but I also gave extra bonus points for memorable moments in them so So there were, and there were many. And you smell bad. Gus Chiggins, man, and tying it back to funerals, Bob. Your storytelling, listen, man, I love your story. It was really good. I always love when Bob tells a story, whether it's real or not, I'm invested.
Starting point is 00:56:19 Boilers, they're all fake. So in terms of the actual Competition, I'll start with Bob for lighters. I I talked it up. You got to about level two of anger So that's two points for that then some people are born this way really made me laugh. So that's that was good For holiday, you only got to level one anger, but and Memorial Day really made me laugh So I give you another one for a Memorial Day Donkeys you really you really went deep on donkeys I didn't expect that to happen, but yeah, you you you went all the way on donkeys to level three
Starting point is 00:56:55 You went all the way on donkeys Oh funerals yeah funerals God that was fucking hilarious you went to level two on anger But didn't I give you enough when you were alive you started off so strong that I couldn't not Give you points for that and then mining that was very funny just so I was captivated by the story Not as angry, but hey chickens CHI GGI NS
Starting point is 00:57:22 Shiggy's all right, you went pretty hard on, you didn't go very hard on motherhood. And I only gave you one point because I feel like you went pretty soft on that. You could've, could've. That's okay, the pitchforks are at bay today and I think I said what needed to be said on that. Boats, you went all the way.
Starting point is 00:57:39 And pretty much that's the story for all of your rants. You went all the way on all of them. Boats, you went to level three rage. P them boats you went to level three rage pets you went to level three rage my god uh kids with cell phones actually i only counted that as level two rage it got pretty close but it was there coffee easily level three rage don't know how you did it but you did it so that's that many points for that round wade you also got no memorable moments I'll do better next time. Blue, your rants were just like pure and simple rage all the way through. But you gotta admit, Wade- or Bob had some memorable quotes. Oh, his- I will never compete with Bob when it comes to telling a story, and I accept that.
Starting point is 00:58:16 Alright, Wade, you got points for scheduled flirts. You got points for- Get a- Get a hair it gross? Get a haircut. Get a haircut. Oh, get a hair it gross? Get a haircut. Get a haircut. Oh get a haircut gross. Yeah, okay. Yeah get a haircut blueprints You were correct about gorillas and you suggested the 12v1 was the 50-50 which I agreed with bob You got got the right meds Uh, not standard size non-standard size that you were also correct about gorillas All right, so this makes it a very close game. I won't tell you how close but it's extremely close. It's that kind of close where you look at and you're like, that's too close It's the close where it's concerning to me. Oh, we know what happens if you get the wheel again
Starting point is 00:58:56 Please be a one and not the listeners. I don't know if you want to ask the wheel for things mark I think you should just pray that the wheel gives you good things Okay, this is okay. All right, okay. Take this. I take three three bonus three bonus. All right What are you adding to the wheel? Oh, what should I add to the wheel? Um, is it do we already have got the angriest? I actually don't think most angry is on here put most angry I think that's fitting with this theme We got a best-told story at some point to which would definitely a favorite Bob and we currently have just update 35 things on the wheel of many things nice can't be listeners or viewers again, right? There we go
Starting point is 00:59:38 point for viewers No Fucking how did you do that? I actually don't have control over it. It was I swear, I promise I'll like put my hands up next time or something, I swear to god Fucking hell
Starting point is 00:59:56 You said it! Wow! It was a bit! This is a fucking simulation This is a simulation, I'm calling it right now. Oh, should we spin it again, Mark? I think we must, don't we? I'm just making sure I-
Starting point is 01:00:11 I'm not doing anything. Unless I can push buttons with my dick. Loudest. Wade, I think you got- I think it's Wade, yeah. Loudest, alright, so. I'm a loud obnoxious person, typically. Alright!
Starting point is 01:00:26 Tallest! Ahn-swoosh ahn-swoosh Wait Did Wade sing in this one? Was that this one? Wade was singing at the beginning and I remember saying specifically Bob while you were saying fuck I was like you should sing that Yeah and I didn't. But you didn't
Starting point is 01:00:42 That point goes to Wade Guys give a point to waste above can I uh, nope you can't Look I've been having my bias not picking you as a winner. So I'm here. So here is everything's good We're balancing out the world. I don't know that you did I think the wheel shows me look you got a coin if you could say otherwise, but you know if you Know it's a coaster right now I'm too busy the point stand is thus Bob you had 17 points a startlingly memorable storytelling for Wade with his constant
Starting point is 01:01:15 commitment to the rage eat it out with 19 points so with 19 to 17 Wade congratulations you're the winner you also got those two bonus points. Thank you. This was fun. I was a little concerned when we first started. I was like, how am I going to drum up feelings for certain topics? I don't know. And when it started with motherhood, I'm not going to lie, I was really a bit concerned,
Starting point is 01:01:37 but this ended up being really fun. It was a creative way to kind of yes and the bit of just like, all right, well, I'll find a reason to be pissed off about these things. And I love boats. everyone knows I love boats but it was it was a fun challenge to be angry about boats and to find reasons to not be able to live on my boat and fish and catch birds and I'll have to think about that next time I look at a boat also Bob your storyteller man chef's kiss I don't have the rage so I have to have something yeah Bob your
Starting point is 01:02:03 storytelling didn't win you this one so so you're a loser's bitch. You know what? As a canary from West Virginia, I feel like even if I couldn't win this episode, I'm a winner in life for escaping that shithole. Sorry, West Virginia, that felt immediately too mean after I said it out loud. I know people who give you a lot of shit. But it's a nondescript mining town somewhere, not in any specific city or state location, so as to not pit- I don't have anything against you guys, don't worry West Virginia, we're cool. Uh, no, this was fun. I- I struggled to get rage going out of nowhere,
Starting point is 01:02:36 but it was really fun to try and make it happen with such random topics. It's a really good exercise. It's like a good improv game. It's very fun. I gotta say, we took shots at Kentucky. I did. And in West Virginia, you did today. Any states that you wanna target? Oh, Kentucky can suck my ass, but West Virginia, we're okay.
Starting point is 01:02:55 We're okay. I didn't mean it. Mark, any states you wanna take shots at before we wrap up? No, I'm good, man. I'm equal opportunity hating. Next time we play this maybe, I'll hate amongst the best of them There's also two other games that are associated with this post as one called think about it
Starting point is 01:03:10 I want to play both of those yeah You guys can take this for future episodes think about it Which is you're given a random topic your job is to build it into it Conspiracy theory so give you a topic and like think about it man So and then there's world's greatest expert which is similar, but so look forward to maybe that in the future. Thank you for the suggestion We don't often take them and hey, you know we rolled the dice and it was pretty good this time Maybe unless everyone hated it, which you know won't know till later. Don't even get them started on this episode Well, thank you everybody so much for watching and or listening especially you listeners out there
Starting point is 01:03:44 Well, thank you everybody so much for watching and or listening especially you listeners out there Well, I shouldn't have done that for the view That's just for you listeners out there Anyway, follow the podcast for more beautiful listening. Oh wait. No, sorry listeners. You didn't get the point. Sorry I did the wrong one listeners get it fucking together. Don't even get me started on you fucking earbags Why don't you just anyway? So? Congratulations to the viewers who actually got the point this week. You're the best and But with no sound I did a visual ah clever I was gonna open it was for the listeners cuz then we could have done the the what's that guy in the water gate
